TTM will host the second 'San Antonio Early Ford V8 Show' on on a date to be decided in 2017. These vehicles are some of the most handsome ever made. Their 'art-deco' styling takes us back to both a glamorous yet difficult time in American history. The drop-off in sales caused by the Great Depression in the 1930s inspired automobile manufacturers to up the style of their vehicles and add all kinds of new features including, of course, Ford's revolutionary V8 engines, at a price point no other manufacturer could compete with. As such these vehicles have stood the test of time in ways that few others have, and speak of the greatness that can be inspired by hardship.
